Therapists in Cazenovia, NY

My first experience with therapy, was as the client. After surviving a traumatic event, I sought help from a therapist. Therapy proved so helpful, it was then, that my passion grew. While most of my experience has been in private practice providing individual therapy, I have worked in a county mental health clinic, an inpatient psychiatric setting and a residential group home. At the core of distress, we may find some form of unresolved shame, guilt, trauma, abuse or loss. I am here to provide "a safe place" to process those hurts, while helping you increase self-awareness and gain skills to lead a more fulfilling life.

I believe that everyone can benefit from personal growth. I can connect with anyone of any race, socioeconomic status, religion or sexual orientation. I work with healthy individuals with life challenges as well as those suffering from depression, anxiety, relationship problems and parenting issues. I am adept at working with PTSD and Sexual Abuse Survivors. I love working with High School students, College age and beyond. I can assist you with your career and life direction. I am easy to connect with as I am not only approachable, and you will find me casual and laid back in a comfortable, non-intimidating environment.

I am a licensed social worker/therapist with several years of experience working with individuals from diverse backgrounds. I aim to establish a safe, supportive space where we can work together to better understand the underlying mechanisms behind your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors so that you may take the necessary steps to lead the life you want. I work from an integrative perspective, combining an insight-oriented approach with goal-focused interventions. In doing so, the objective is to help you develop a stronger sense of self and bolster your abilities to adapt and thrive.

Are you seeking ways in which to feel better or to improve your interpersonal relationships? The decision to make that first step toward lasting change can be daunting. I help individuals, couples and families find healthy, creative and lasting solutions to their personal and interpersonal relationship challenges. My clinical training and expertise focuses on safely helping you to explore feelings of distress, leading to new insights, healing and change. I believe that anyone has the capability of achieving more happiness and satisfaction in their lives and relationships. You CAN take control of your life and feel great again.

I would like to first start with saying Congratulations to making the first step in prioritizing your mental health! It is a courageous decision to work on ourselves! Therapy can be the beginning of a life changing endeavor for many and it all begins with you. HI! My name is Erin and I, too, have made that same decision in my life to seek better understanding of myself as well as working through challenges that have gotten me “stuck” at times in my life. I share this because I feel it important for my patients to know that my own personal journey allows me to be empathetic and compassionate to patient’s needs and struggles.
